Vacation Anyone?

I know I keep saying it, but I really need a nice, long vacation. Preferably, somewhere sunny with a nice beach. But, there's also the lure of some nice North Carolina mountain real estate. Part of my family lives in Greensboro, and we've had to drive through the mountains in NC to get there. It's really quite lovely and peaceful. It might be a good place to go in the fall, when the leaves are turning. There's nothing quite like the Smoky Mountains at fall's peak, I tell you. Well, Ohio's pretty nice too, especially where I live. But wow, the mountains all ablaze in reds, yellows, and oranges is a sight to behold.
